Yep,
I have 4 gmail calendars (wife, mine, 2 x kids) syncing with our Ipad 2 which generally sits on its case/stand in the kitchen.
Come down in the morning and with two taps we can all see what we're doing/school lessons/kit needed/etc. for that day.
Frankly it's brilliant - I've never been so organised

This is exacly what I would like to be able to do. How do you accomplish this - 2 taps to see everything? Do you use a gmail app on the ipad? Thanks a bunch!

I have my gmail account set up as an exchange account on my ipad2. I am so frustrated cuz my calendar is like my bible. When I make a change on my calendar on my ipad2 or on my DroidX phone I want the changes to sync with each other. That is not happening. Please help if you can.

Should be working, a few things to check: have you set the default calendar to use on your iPad as your exchange account, the default is iPads own calendar. Have you got a Internet connection when making the changes, changes won't be reflected until you do.

Ok. I changed the default calendar to the ipad calendar. Nothing changed. I am using wifi at home. Should I have to be using the 3G instead to get changes to happen? There are three voices for the default calendar. On my iPad, exchange or gmail. I have on my iPad selected right now. It's still not pulling my calendar from my phone to my iPad .

No I'm not using the gMail app, just the built in calendar on all the devices.
Have a look at this.......... it's what I used. There's a couple of hoops to jump through but once done it's great. We can now add/edit any of the 4 calendars from my work pc, my hackintoch netbook, either of the iPhones, the iPad or my daughters android phone.
